Stainless drawn tubes closed with a rounded end – the closed end is formed with a full radius rather than a flat crimp, so there is no crease to crack. Rounded closed ends are standard for sensor sheaths and probe tips.
Function and Design
The tube is judged by the dimension nobody checks until a failure – fit, seal or concentricity. Tolerances that matter are confirmed with capability data before the tube is quoted.
What Makes It Work
- Stainless tube construction shrugs off washdown, humidity and process media without plating to chip through.
- Full documentation set available: material certs, dimensional reports, first article files.
- First-article verified, then sampled in production – batches match.
- Material: We hold stainless steel (304 / 316) for tube production; special grades are sourced to the drawing when volumes justify.
- Process: tube drawing, straightening and finish turning in one flow for the tube.
- Finish: Natural as standard for the tube; plating or coating quoted to the drawing.
- Size: Final dimensions of the tube to your drawing; this page shows the family, your version is quoted from the print.
- Custom: OEM/ODM to drawing; the tube is quoted with real lead times, not estimates.
Where It Is Used
Production volumes of this part run in automotive sensor stems, medical and food-grade devices, instrument capillary lines.
Why Source It From Aunov
Tube work is unforgiving: a few hundredths in the wrong place and the assembly will not go together. Tolerances that matter are confirmed with capability data before the tube is quoted.
